Cheerful Apple Compost Crock Collects Kitchen Scraps

This charming stoneware compost pail brightens your kitchen while it conveniently and discreetly stores fruit peels and vegetable scraps until it's
time to take them outside to the composter. A metal bail handle makes it easy to tote, and a charcoal filter inside the lid neutralizes odors.

Its holds a lots of kitchen scraps and the lid stays tight. The filter works very well and there is no odors.It is very attractive and a nice upgrade from the basic black plastic old container that I used.

Although the product looks great, The sour flies go crazy on it. The lid does not fit tight enough to prevent odors and flies from entering and exiting. If the lid had some type of plastic attached to the lip of the lid where it seals, this would keep the container sealed and prevent escape of odors. Although the charcoal insert in the lid seems to have been designed for odors, when the lid isn't tight, it doesnt mater what amount of charcoal filter is used.

it is used for collecting kitchen scraps for the com-poster. The charcoal replacement filters are not wide enough so now I get fruit flies in it. This replaced the garbage can style I had that broke. Now I wish I would have ordered the same style I had.

Unlike my previous container it does not have a hinged lid that I can flip up with one hand. I did not think about this when I purchased it. I often have something in my hand (i.e. a banana or orange) and want to drop debris into the container as I peel, which requires 2 hands. With the Apple I need to take top off & put on counter, which means after I put it back I need to take a paper towel or sponge and wipe off the counter.

This guide will help you choose the right composter for your situation.
